My guinea pig makes sudden blowing noises out of her nose but idk if it is a sneeze or not, she is a fluffy guinea pig and eats normal and poops normal too, I’m just scared this is a URI, does anyone else’s guinea pig do this and is it normal? They are just sudden blowing noises like if a human quickly blew air out of there nose.
Thank you

How often. Alot of the time its just dusty little particals of hay. Every pig ive had ( 4) sneezed. Their nostrils are so narrow and guinea pigs only breathe through their nose.

Sneezing was the first sign of my pigs uri then crusty eyes and nose . And no appetite

I’d say every ten minutes or so but I don’t know if it is sneezing or not, it’s just a puff of air.
